and if you haven't rewritten sort on your box to be faster, what kind of
geek ARE you? :-)

Well, I looked at it (at least, I looked at qsort... I haven't looked
to see if I could speed the io of the sort command).  GNU qsort is
incredibly coded.  It has a list of references, and during my lit
searches, I couldn't find any they'd missed.

I was talking about sort. GNU qsort rocks in a major way. (...) (26 years ago, 18-Feb-99, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

(...) Does uniq mess up the sorting? I don't see why you have to pipe it through sort twice otherwise. I mean, Yick. sort is a slow program anyway, so doing it twice where once would do :) Jasper (26 years ago, 18-Feb-99, to lugnet.publish)
